BUG: Wd2007 Saving as web page with drawings- Horrible pixelation
When saving as Web Page (either Filtered or not- see P.S. below), Word 2007
mucks up drawings that contain text. This did not happen with Word 2003 (or earlier for that matter). The text produced is horribly unreadable. Screenshots: Word 2003 http://www.cflashsoft.com/temp/wd02drawtext_sc1.png Word 2007 (ugh!!!) http://www.cflashsoft.com/temp/wd07drawtext_sc1.png Word 2007 is absolutely UNUSABLE for creating technical documentation because of this. I hate this! Why destroy a perfectly working feature? Was this release even QA'd? P.S. Saving as Web Page (not filtered) produces the same result... except you wouldn't know it unless you used a browser other than IE! Before some "MVP" suggests this option, check it out for yourself first. -- -C. Moya www.cmoya.com |

BUG: Wd2007 Saving as web page with drawings- Horrible pixelation
What happens if you save as PNG?
What fonts are you using? What happens if you save as PDF? What kind of drawings are this (in other words, how did you make them)?

These are Word textboxes... either when placed in a Drawing Canvas or inline with text... it doesn't matter. It's also easy to reproduce. Just create a new document, Insert, Text Box. Type some text. Save As Web Page (Filtered) (see P.S. in original post). Word 2003 (and prior AFAIK) saves them beautifully... Word 2007 destroys them. What happens if you save as PNG? Haven't changed the "Allow save as PNG" option. I shouldn't have to. What fonts are you using? I tried Times New Roman, Arial, and even Calibri. All same horrible result. What happens if you save as PDF? Don't know. That's not what I'm trying to do. -- -C. Moya www.cmoya.com "Patrick Schmid [MVP]" wrote in message ... What happens if you save as PNG?

Word 2003 (and prior AFAIK) saves them beautifully... Word 2007 destroys them. Sorry, I don't repro this. I made a text box, added some text and saved it as webpage and webpage filtered. Then I looked at the page in Firefox. It looks perfectly fine.

Can you post a screen shot or at least the resulting GIF that Word creates of the textbox (it's put in xxxx_files subfolder). |

Aha!... you didn't change the textbox to be inline with text (right-click
Format Textbox). I just discovered if I leave the textbox as a floating textbox, the problem doesn't manifest itself. However, it does manifest itself with floating Callouts. -- -C.
